CPM-SCHP-2315P-ELSA

The ClearPath-SCHP model allows you to precisely servo-control position (and velocity) using a software API, programmed in C++ on Windows/Linux or .NET languages (such as C#) on Windows. ClearPath-SC can also be controlled using traditional “step & direction” (or quadrature A/B) command signals from a third-party motion controller (in which case, you can use the software API to change parameters, such as torque limits; or read status, such as encoder position). Compared to ClearPath-SCSK models (which are controlled in the same way), the SCHP models have more peak torque, and come standard with enhanced positioning resolution for a moderately higher price.

Operating Modes

Software Control

Use a Windows or Linux PC to send commands and get status from ClearPath. The "Advanced" firmware option includes anti-vibration move profiles, user-defined interrupts, conditional torque limiting, and more.

Step and Direction

One ClearPath input counts steps from your motion controller, the other input determines if the steps are made in the clockwise or counter-clockwise direction.This mode can be used at the same time as Software Control, but eliminates functions that require inputs (e.g., input-triggered moves).

International Orders

ClearPath International Shipping Policies

Teknic ships ClearPath products to a number of selected countries outside of the United States. To see if we currently ship to your country, check the drop-down menu in the “Calculate Shipping Cost” box in the shopping cart or the Country drop-down menus on the Checkout page. Products shipped internationally may take up to two more days to ship due to extra processing time, but we will do our best to ship small quantities within three days.

If your destination country is not available for shipments through our website, and your company expects to purchase more than 320 ClearPath motors per year, you may be able to purchase through Teknic's OEM-direct sales channel. Another alternative may be to purchase through our website using the shipping address of a global freight forwarding service. Please fill out our contact form or call us at +1 585 784 7454 for more information on these other options.

IMPORTANT: Additional charges not included in Teknic's shipping chargesTeknic's international shipping charges include express air transportation, brokerage fees, and clearance entry fees, but your destination country may charge you import duties (tariffs) and/or taxes and other fees for the products you import from Teknic. These charges are not included and must be paid by you upon receipt of your shipment.

Unfortunately, we cannot calculate what your additional charges may be because customs and taxation policies vary widely from country to country. As a general guideline, the European Union duty rate for ClearPath motors is 2.7%; the global average import duty rate is about 4%; rates of 8-12% are not uncommon; and a few countries are higher. For exact details, please contact your destination’s customs office or visit their official website.

Where to Enter a VAT (Value Added Tax) Registration Number:During checkout, you can add "VAT:" followed by your VAT Number on the second address line. If you already have a second line in your address, you can put the VAT Number in the same line after a "/" symbol.For example:

• If you are located in the United Kingdom, you might write: "VAT:GBGD999"

• If you have a second address line, you might write: "Suite #9 / VAT:GBGD999"

Lead Time/Shipping Info

We will ship the first 5 pieces of each part number within 3 business days (up to 5 days for international orders)

We will ship any balance on your order within 3 weeks

We will send you an email with tracking information when your order ships

To determine your transit time for “Ground” shipping within the U.S., see the UPS map below

Possibly.Teknic is able to promise that any part number ordered from the web will ship within three business days. We are able to promise this because we keep a stock of semi-finished assemblies. Your order is what triggers the final assembly, full test, and shipment of that specific product. This production method allows Teknic to promise a consistent, short lead time for any one of almost a thousand unique part numbers.

Depending on the exact manufacturing and order details, we may be able to build the order in less than three days. If that's the case, we won't hold off from shipping earlier. We just can't promise to ship anything in less than three business days. (And remember to add the shipping transit time to estimate the actual arrival date of your order.)

Software Options

Compare Basic and Advanced Software Features

Feature

Description

Basic Version(Standard)

Advanced Version(Optional)

Jerk-limited positional moves

Make relative or absolute moves with automatic jerk limiting and jerk-derivative limiting for ultra-smooth motion.

Velocity moves

Ramp up or down to user-selected velocities and rotate continuously. Programmable settings control acceleration, jerk (rate of change of acceleration), and jerk derivative for ultra-smooth changes in speed.

Flexible homing routines

Home to a limit switch or hardstop (with gentle, torque-limited hardstop detection). User-defined homing routine can be pre-configured and invoked with one line of code.

Read measured position, velocity, torque, and much more

Full access to real-time status of all motion parameters (more than 30 different status indicators)

Safety shutdowns

Constant, automatic monitoring of a variety of motor operating conditions, and shutdowns as necessary to prevent motor and/or system damage.

Soft limits

Set software end-of-motion limits to prevent accidental crashes (can be used simultaneously with physical limit switches).

Global torque limiting

Programmable limit on the maximum amount of torque.

Automatic brake coil control

Automatically engage a third-party fail-safe brake when an axis shuts down or is disabled.

Group shutdowns

Automatically stop all motion axes simultaneously when any axis has a problem. Also, a global stop input allows non-programmatic simultaneous stopping of all axes using a digital input, button, or switch.

Up to 16 axes per com port

Using low-cost SC Hub boards ($49), create up to 4 "mini-networks" of up to 4 axes each, which can be daisy-chained (distributed or plugged directly into each other without cables) to allow maximum flexibility and minimal wiring.

Robust communication

Innovative hardware and communication design allows high command throughput (over 1,000 commands per second) without using noise-sensitive high-speed circuitry or non-deterministic "crash and retry" protocols. All inputs are optically isolated for even more noise immunity.

Automatic network configuration

No need for setting DIP switches or programming network addresses. Just power up the system and each axis is automatically addressed based on its position in the network.

g-Stop™ anti-vibration move profiles

Motion profile sculpting based on patented anti-vibration technology. Allows the fastest possible moves without exciting mechanical resonances in the machine. Easy to configure, and robust operation even as mechanics wear over time. See video demonstration.

Triggered moves

One or more axes can be configured to start simultaneously upon command or electronic signal for the most precise synchronization requirements.

Head-tail moves

Create two- or three-part move profiles where the beginning and/or the end of the moves are at a different maximum velocity than the middle part of the moves. This is useful for making fast moves with one or two slower segments (e.g., moving past a camera slowly and then moving to a target quickly, or slowly clamping something at the end of a fast move).

Asymmetric moves

Create move profiles with different acceleration and deceleration limits. Often, because of friction (or gravity), an axis can decelerate faster than it can accelerate, and this feature allows faster moves in these cases.

Trigger events at user-defined positions

Get a notification when an axis reaches a certain position (either after the start or before the end of the move) to allow synchronization with other events or processes.

AC Blower Kit

This blower kit (AC powered fan and shroud) provides a significant increase in continuous torque for certain AC-input (integral hp) ClearPath motors. Motor part numbers shown with a “_fan” after them show the increased specifications using this blower. Note that this kit is not IP rated for dust or liquid protection, and needs AC wiring separate from the motor. For wiring and installation instructions, refer to the user manual: AC Input, Integral Horsepower ClearPath Motors

SC Communication Hub

Required for ClearPath-SC systems. Provides network connection for up to four axes. Up to four SC hubs can be daisy-chained to create networks of up to 16 axes (per COM port). Automatic brake control outputs are provided (max of two per daisy-chain). One digital input is provided to stop all axes simultaneously.
